Well, they have already called AA/SA, A/SA, B/SA and C/SA to the lanes with plans to begin promptly at 8:30. It is about 10 degrees hotter than yesterday morning. The air is already 2100' and rising. It is supposed to be 97 degrees today. I don't ever remember Indy being this hot. Well, I am going up to watch us get our butts beat since we have Atwell first round.

More later.

Well, I was right, we got our butts beat! But Larry red-lighted and then the car lost power. So now he has to work on it again. Not many surprises in Round 1. Lind from Sweden got timed out. I wonder if they use the same timing system there. Pouciou lost on a hole shot. I think the next round should have some better races. We just came back for a snack and to cool off and will go back and watch Round 2. More later.

Larry Hill · 09-01-2011, 11:55 AM

Boy is it hot here! Watched Round 2 and came back to the motorhome to cool off. Well it is down to 2 in A/S--Kevin Helms and Caleb McFarland. Do we get to keep the booze if the winner is not 21??

There have been lots of redlights here this weekend. And really bad ones at that. Hopefully everything will go better in eliminations.

Well we are done for the day except for watching the rest of class. Then Mopar is putting on a little thing this afternoon that we plan to attend. We also have an invitation to the Ford thing tonight.

More later.
Here are a few more pics.

As you can see I got my trans fixed. Darren Smith from Pro Trans got in at midnight and finished the trans by 4 am. Mike and Darren help me get the trans in this morning and I just made first rd class. I am lucky to still be in. Charlie Fitzsimmons blew the tires away, otherwise I had no chance of getting by him.

The weather is hot and slow. the numbers for second rd class
Temp 87
humd 46
Bar 29.11
DA 3437

I will try to get an in car cam today, but I have been so busy I have not had the time.

They just called third rd class, be back later....
